The Big Sit! 2010 Statistics

These statistics reflect information submitted by reporting circles. As teams continue to report their Big Sit! results, the statistics on this page will change to reflect up-to-the-minute information.

Notes: We performed our usual circle-creating ritual, but this year we used organic unbleached flour to highlight the circle. Our first birds of the day were Western Screech Owl and Great Horned Owl. The baklava tradition ended and the Bosa Donut tradition started with this, our 15 th Big Sit! at this location. Our total for the day was 65. We added five new species to our cumulative list bringing the total for the 15 years to 134. Significant misses were Song Sparrow, Vermilion Flycatcher, and Cactus Wren. A highlight of the day was watching an Osprey chasing an adult Bald Eagle. We raised about $1,200 for conservation activities for the Maricopa Audubon Society.
